The (reconstructed) expression is [p∨(∼q∨∼r)]∧[p∨(q∧r)][p \vee (\sim q \vee \sim r)] \wedge [p \vee (q \wedge r)].

This has the form (p∨X)∧(p∨Y)(p \vee X) \wedge (p \vee Y) with X=∼q∨∼rX = \sim q \vee \sim r and Y=q∧rY = q \wedge r. By the distributive law, (p∨X)∧(p∨Y)≡p∨(X∧Y)(p \vee X) \wedge (p \vee Y) \equiv p \vee (X \wedge Y).

So the expression becomes p∨[(∼q∨∼r)∧(q∧r)]p \vee [(\sim q \vee \sim r) \wedge (q \wedge r)]. …
